Changing Screen Orientation

Epicurus · September 24th, 2010, 03:58 AM

I'm new at all this, and in the first bit of code required to change orientation Fig.2-14 I put the code in as told but nothing happens when I run it.

This is what I've got:

/*
// Override to allow orientations other than the default portrait orientation.
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIIn terfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation { //
Return YES for supported orientations
return YES;
}
*/

Try pulling off the /* and */ to uncomment the block
In Xcode the text will become color coded instead of all the same (comment color of your choice in preferences) color

Code:

// Override to allow orientations other than the default portrait orientation.
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation {
    // Return YES for supported orientations
 //		return (interfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait);
	return YES;
}

//btnClicked: implementation
-(IBAction) btnClicked:(id)sender {
		//display alert
	UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc]
												initWithTitle:@"btnClicked"
												message:@"Starting" 
												delegate:self 
												cancelButtonTitle:@"Go ahead" 
												otherButtonTitles:nil, nil];
	[alert show];
	[alert release];
}
